ERG continues to repower its plants 50 MW. Camporeale wind farm in Sicily started-up

Genova, 29 September 2023 – ERG completed the construction and started energising the Camporeale wind farm in Palermo, the second in the group's portfolio to complete a total technological renovation.

Following the replacement of all existing aerogenerators with the latest-generation models, the plant now has 12 4.2 MW turbines with a total installed capacity of 50.4 MW (compared to the 24 0.85 MW aerogenerators for a total of 20.4 MW) and an estimated annual production of approximately 86 GWh (compared to the previous 31 GWh).

Paolo Merli, CEO of ERG, commented: The launch of the Camporeale wind farm, following the Partinico Monreale project, gives broad visibility to the repowering plan of which we were pioneers in Italy, which involves the renovation of 15 plants with latest-generation turbines capable of tripling production for the same amount of land occupied. This provides concrete demonstration of the focus given to repowering in the energy transition process”.
